Noelle Tune RaceBox data before / after

Day one with Noelle tune (I am just a customer, and not in the car business)…I was so annoyed at the lack of data that I got the tune installed and just tested. Bottom line is that it is a big improvement over stock. RaceBox data attached. It shaved a full second off the 60-130, and the quarter mile tonight was 10.36-10.38 @135 mph. My prior all time best stock time was 10.70 at 130 mph (in perfect conditions). Best 0-60 dropped from a smooth 2.70 to a squealing 2.55 sec (one foot rollout on in both cases). I estimate power is up 175 hp, and the transmission is also snappier. This car can now keep up with my GT2RS until 120 mph, and stays very close after that (unless there are turns!). Noelle isn't voodoo, but it's a solid way to make a high ten second car into a low ten second car. And the extra torque is super noticeable in higher gears. Flame away peeps, but data is data.

A 6.99 60 to 130 is strong. Interesting comment about the GT2RS since they 60 to 130 around 6.4 bone stock. Which year do you own ?

I have a 2018 GT2RS, and yes…the GT2RS has a slight edge at higher speeds. Slight. See data overlay attached (10.34 is the 2RS).

What was your 60 to 130 in that GT2RS pass ?

Record half mile, quarter mile, and 0-60 time in M5C with Noelle tune. It is quicker than my GT2RS until 98 mph! 100-150 the GT2 pulls away, but not by that much. So impressed with this tune, and beast of a car to begin with!

Seen so many threads ppl bashing this tune and rightfully so… lack of dragys.

This peaked my interest. Was all about DME not not so sure.

New record!

And this Noelle tuned M5C is now officially quicker than my GT2RS in the quarter (at least without VHT). This run is probably going to stick as the quickest for a while. 65 degree night and she launched in LC with zero wheel spin. Just hooked up and lunged forward! Blown away!

Why is it that all the "Noelle" tune threads come from new members?, as for your run, your launch is very good, 60-130 is about the same range as BM3 ots Stage 2.
I am also curious, were you told that you werent allowed to dyno the car with the tune?

I have no reason to doubt OP other than "it's the Internet" and people often make up shit for no reason. However, I don't know that I've heard of someone paying for a tune because they were annoyed at forum threads saying it was fake. Like you're sitting around reading threads about a questionable tune and then your conclusion is to go spend $2-3000 (? — I don't know the cost) because it was annoying. That's probably the most odd thing about this to me. 😀

He has a GT2RS as well. He can obviously afford to do anything that he wants.

I wouldn't consider him a "new member" really…
Hes been around at least 1 year.
I could see your point if he joined within a month or 2. Would like to see if theres a way he could tie his dragys with his car and tune?

More info for anyone who wants it

Understand the skepticism on the Internet these days. You guys can check out my Instagram at @bdussert. It's all out there (including best ever stock times and a video of my first 2.53 0-60). To clarify, I heard about Noelle initially on YouTube, talked to the guys there and at Lonestar Bavarians, then read all the threads and was discouraged by the lack of data and large number of naysayers. Figured it was worth a go to see what it could do. And I freaking love it so far. It was $3,600 plus an oil change with LiquiMolly. The Noelle warranty says don't do dyno runs due to cooling issues in many dyno setups. They will let you if you prove to them your setup has sufficient air handling. I don't need to dyno it when I just ran a 10.24 ET at 135! Best 60-130 is 6.94 sec. Best ever 60-130 stock was 7.99 sec, with typical being 8.1X. This is far from the only answer, but it's a pretty cool option. And yes, I have a GT2RS and a GT3RS, but still hesitated for weeks before pulling the trigger, because why torch money for no reason?

Like you said, there are way too many skeptical things going with Noelle Tune, some were claiming outrageous numbers and you proved them otherwise posting your times. I mean i'll be honest, for the price you paid for the tune it is not worth it compared to Bootmod3.
Bootmod3 offers same performance, 1/3 cheaper, tested on many more cars so we know its reliable and the biggest thing is their platform that allows you to adjust few things. I'm just not sure why risk paying 3 times more for a tune you know very little of? I mean i would understand going that route if their performance was better but that isn't the case based on the numbers you provided. I don't want to brag but HCP tune for example (Through BM3 Platform) puts down very good numbers, I have their tune together with few other members. 60-130= 5.9s, 1/4 = 9.9s.
Even DME is similarly price ranged as Noelle but again puts down better numbers and has been around.

Personally, you numbers look very legit. At 3500ft DA , my Bone Stock 2018 M5 ran 11.2’s back to back to back in the 1/4. 8.2ish 60 to 130 mph. Lower DA/elevation would have dropped those considerably.

My 2019 Turbo S ran 10.4 in the 1/4 and 7.4 in 60 to 130mph bone stock 3500ft.

A tune dropped the Turbo S to 6.09 60 to 130mph.

Your posts are helpful and add to the data that I have from other GT2RS owners. All agree they hook “ok” but would love the AWD system in them from the Turbo S for more drag hook on the street. On the road circuit, the RWD with lessor weight and better balance rules.

Well done.

Right, not saying Noelle is the only, or even best solution. I like the following:
- bone stock hardware and guaranteed smog pass (no cat delete and 4 hour install time)
- tuning of the ECU and TCU, as well as details like updated sports displays, no speed governor, and bone stock drivability for my daily.
- Noelle warranty. Not sure how well it would actually pay out claims, but it's a nice security blanket for a 2020 with only 11K miles.

Bottom line is I'm happy with the results. There are definitely faster 60-130 cars out there, and I plan to build / buy one to be ready for TX2K 2023 that will be faster than any M5 can be reliably (either a built GTR or Underground Racing Lambo).

So for me, I wanted no top speed limiter and over 800 crank horsepower. Would have been happy with consistent sub 10.5 1/4 miles for my daily. Ended up getting 10.24-10.30 on a perfect run, and 10.3X all day long, and 2.5 sec 0-60 times are amazing.

So there you have it. I did look at DME, and think they're also a good option. Just happy with my results.

I understand the list of things you are saying, but those same exact things are offered by every other tune except "warranty". Heck bootmod3 offers even more you can change things such as "exhaust burble" "top speed" and switch tunes as you go and easily within 3 minutes using your phone. Im not trying to sell you BM3 or DME, Im just curious how you trusted someone that has so much skepticism.

Thanks. Yup, nothing beats a GT2RS on a circuit in my book. Senna, 765LT, and AMG black are the only contenders. Too soon to tell on Huracan STO, but there's no way they're better than a 2RS.

For maximum street acceleration, you need an AWD platform. Tuned M5 is the ultimate sleeper daily, but there are MUCH faster rigs if you want to really haul! Sub 3 60-130 is now the standard for insane straight line acceleration. Planning on a different car for this (that I won't daily). Turbo S also has huge potential…curious what a 992 Turbo S could do with a tune.
